Good morning ladies!

Zuberi: So excited you O'd! Now just for the TWW! I have only used OPK one cycle but my OPK stayed positive for 2 days afterwards but I've read on forums where women has positives for up to a week.. crazy. However, you are still supposed to assume that O happens within 24 to 36 hrs and of course you know that when you get your temp spike it confirms it.. sounds like you got it! And thanks! Same goes to you ladies.. I really appreciate all the support!

Topowifey: tomorrow.. tomorrow.. only a day away!! Get some good sleep tonight and try to relax! Try not to feel left out. Although we don't exactly understand all of the stuff you are going through medically with TTC we are still all on the same journey and always here to talk.. even if we don't always understand.. you will just have to break it down for us.. Idk about the other ladies but I'm always up for learning something new!!

Dbjohnson: Totally understand about the testing when you are at home all day. 3-4 times is crazy tho girl! I work three days a wk so I don't have problems those days. Here's what I try when I'm at home... I make myself a promise that I will only test with FMU b/c if I am going to get a pos that would be the only time it would show early. Then when I don't want to test I get up and pee before I've put too much thought into it that way I can convince myself the rest of the day that it's not worth wasting a test on. How's the waiting game going? Any symptoms or spotting (implantation bleeding)?

AFM: My oh my! At this rate I don't know what's going to happen this month... DH has been "in the mood" that last few days lol so not knowing when I'm Oing it's hard to try not to conceive. Maybe not constantly worrying about when I'm going to O is helping him relax more than it is me ... so I guess when AF comes around again I won't be telling him when I'm going to O.. that means I'm going to go crazy trying not to talk to him about it so I'd say you guys are in for a long month with me when I get AF back haha

Try not to rub the weather in too bad.. it's a high of 43 here today :( But tomorrow, Friday and Saturday are supposed to be in the 60's woo hoo!! I'm dreaming of Cali.. lucky girls!!

@Amanda: thanks for the suggestions. I have tried to tell myself the same things (I would only get a positive with FMU), but it never works! I'm a little crazy! I've planned a jam packed weekend, so hopefully I'll be too distracted to think about it.

@Topowifey: Like Amanda, I am always eager to learn about new things. Who knows, I might need to do what you are doing... I'm not getting any younger, and it took over a year our first time TTC.

AFM: I'm on DPO 3 today... So, ovulation has been confirmed by my temperature shift. So, fthat is a reassuring thing. The last few months, I've gotten two sets of positive OPKs. Around cd 6 I'd get positives for a few days, then negatives, then positive again around cd 13-14. My doc said it could be that may body is gearing up to O, then something goes wrong (stress most likely), so I don't actually O. Then a week later my body tries again and is successful. This is the first month that I've only have one set of positive OPKs, so I'm hoping my body is ready for doing its thing. Since I was having multiple positive OPKs, my doc wants me to have blood drawn on the 7th day after my first positive OPK, this is to verify progesterone and confirm O. So, Monday I have to go have my blood taken. Other than that, everything is cool. I'm trying not to symptom check this month, but it is so hard! Every little abdominal cramp or flutter I feel I think ithas something to do with conception. Like I said before, I'm a little crazy!

For the last few months I've been trying for my first 10k. It is in April, and I am super excited about it. I try to not push myself too hard after O-day until I get AF. Running helps take my mind off things, and I think it helps get my body the healthiest it can be (good blood flow, releasing endorphins).

Sorry about the super long post! Once I get started it is hard to stop! LOL! Can't wait to hear about your day, ladies!

Happy Wednesday!
